All I ever wanted was to be a dancer. Ever since I was a small child. And I would take the bus to rehearsal after school. And I would look out of the windows at the people going about their lives. Going to work, half asleep. And I would tell myself, I'm not like them. And I never will be. Because I'm special. I want to be special again.

I danced my first solo to this. It's Grieg. I was so nervous... the night before, I couldn't sleep. And then I played this music in my room, and after I fell asleep, I dreamed that... the music was color, and I could paint all the audience's faces with my hands.

Listen to me very carefully. You are an errand boy. I have an errand. You will call Zakarov, you will tell him to make a trade. Me for the mole. Once it is arranged, I will give the name to Zakarov personally. Do this right, Mr. Ambassador, and I might even tell them this was your idea.

In my country, if you don't matter to the men in power, you do not matter. Is it so different in your country?
